In a shocking turn of events, President Trump has announced a historic ceasefire agreement between Iran and Israel to end what he has dubbed the ’12 Day War’. The conflict, which began over a dispute about who makes the best hummus, has left both countries in shambles as they battled it out on social media and in the streets.
In a press conference held in the White House Rose Garden, Trump declared, “I am the greatest dealmaker in history, folks. I have brought peace to the Middle East like no one else could. Believe me, this is going to be huge.”
The ceasefire agreement, which was brokered over a game of rock-paper-scissors between Iranian President Hassan Rouhani and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, includes a provision for a joint hummus-making competition to determine once and for all who reigns supreme in the realm of chickpea dips.
When asked for comment, a spokesperson for Netanyahu stated, “We are confident that our hummus recipe will prevail in the competition. Our secret ingredient is love, with a dash of political intrigue.”
Meanwhile, Rouhani’s office released a statement saying, “Our hummus is the best in the world, and we will not back down in this culinary showdown. We have the support of our people and the Ayatollah himself behind us.”
The news of the ceasefire agreement has been met with mixed reactions from the international community. French President Emmanuel Macron tweeted, “I can’t believe they fought over hummus for 12 days. Maybe they should try some French cuisine instead.”
As the world waits with bated breath for the outcome of the hummus-making competition, one thing is for certain – the ’12 Day War’ may be over, but the battle for bragging rights in the Middle East is far from finished.
